consists of dirty pages. ("Pss_Clean" is not included, but it can be
calculated by subtracting "Pss_Dirty" from "Pss".)
-Note that even a page which is part of a MAP_SHARED mapping, but has only
-a single pte mapped, i.e. is currently used by only one process, is accounted
-as private and not as shared.
+Traditionally, a page is accounted as "private" if it is mapped exactly once,
+and a page is accounted as "shared" when mapped multiple times, even when
+mapped in the same process multiple times. Note that this accounting is
+independent of MAP_SHARED.
+
+In some kernel configurations, the semantics of pages part of a larger
+allocation (e.g., THP) can differ: a page is accounted as "private" if all
+pages part of the corresponding large allocation are *certainly* mapped in the
+same process, even if the page is mapped multiple times in that process. A
+page is accounted as "shared" if any page page of the larger allocation
+is *maybe* mapped in a different process. In some cases, a large allocation
+might be treated as "maybe mapped by multiple processes" even though this
+is no longer the case.
+
+Some kernel configurations do not track the precise number of times a page part
+of a larger allocation is mapped. In this case, when calculating the PSS, the
+average number of mappings per page in this larger allocation might be used
+as an approximation for the number of mappings of a page. The PSS calculation
+will be imprecise in this case.
"Referenced" indicates the amount of memory currently marked as referenced or
accessed.
